  • Kudos to your runway \ lawn maintenance team. That runway is stunning! Smooth as a pool table.

  • I anticipated this video since you first started the build. It’s still hard for me to wrap my head around a 3-1/2 month build, have it turn out absolutely gorgeous and fly superb! That’s a 6-12 month build for me at the least. Hats off brother 🎩!!! Can’t wait to see what’s in store next on the building table and can’t wait to watch the Goldberg Sukhoi fly

    • I've been flying longer than that stuff has been around. Not a fan of flipping switches, and never liked the feel of expo. My models are just like the full scale...... all in the stick!

    • @n1114v yep I hear you there. I just couldn't imagine my 3d planes or my fast turbine sport jets having 0 expo and full throws from the servos. I've only been flying for 5 years or so now, so having only been used to expo and lower rates even though I don't flip any switches. Just don't think I'd be as smooth with out it as you are
